The error-handler-404 needs to be (according to http://lighttpd.net/
documentation/configuration.html) the "uri to call if the requested
file results in a 404". Thus, it should be specified relative to the
document-root, e.g. "/dispatch.fcgi". You might try that and see if
that works any better.

THe problem is I shouldn't be getting a 404 error at all, I have
content, controllers, views etc which all give me 404s. If I run
lighttpd without relational paths it works fine. Something is
misconfigured....
